Ice-Mageddon

Wow! We still have not dug out of the ice that fell Thursday evening! My driveway was so bad this morning that I wondered if I would make it to my car without taking a spill on that slippery stuff!



The metroplex has it even worse than we do here in Central Texas. There are still cars and trucks backed up on the Interstate!

This was my yard 4 days after the ice fell. It may look like snow...but it isn't! It is ice and still not melting!


Stay safe...stay warm!

What's in a Name?

I have another blog that I post to that is a little more....um....open than this one. It is The Adventures of Pamazon Barbie (thanks to my friend Heather).

Several friends have asked me how in the world I came up with the name 'Pamazon' for my blog.

A will let you in on a little secret...I am a tall girl...about 5'10" and heels simply add more height to the mix.

As a single woman going out on dates, that height can be a little bit intimidating. I was dating someone about a year ago and he was several inches shorter than I was. One day he made the comment that I was a big girl. I had to correct him and teach him that the correct vernacular was 'tall' girl! LOL!! I added that he made me feel like an Amazon woman when I was standing next to him.
He decided that I needed a nickname. After mulling it over for awhile and remembering the story I told him about my neighbor telling me that I was a "Barbie...a b$tch Barbie," he decided that my name should be Pamazon Barbie. 
I rather liked it and it stuck.
I hope your Thanksgiving holiday was filled with fun, family and friends! Mine was fantastic! Until later....
Pamazon!
